Everything you need to know about Bitcoin

Quite a few entrepreneurs say that “getting there first” is key and vital to success. If that’s the case, then Bitcoin did it first. No matter, you can never take away the fact that Bitcoin is the world’s first cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin, or BTC, which is its trading or ticker, is the original cryptocurrency that was built on blockchain technology. Who created Bitcoin? No one can 100% say. What we do know is that it was created in 2009 by an anonymous developer. The developer or group of developers used the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

If you’re new to the entire cryptocurrency / digital currency world, then it’s good for you to know that Bitcoin remains the most widely accepted and traded cryptocurrency in the world!

So, what was Bitcoin and the thousands of other cryptocurrencies like it first created? The truth is, Bitcoin was created as a decentralised digital asset. Why? Being decentralised means that there’s absolutely no need for a central authority or single administrator over this currency.

Bitcoin has been coined (pardon the pun) as “Digital Gold”, which is fitting given how many investors have gained from trading this cryptocurrency. It’s also fair to point out that many have incurred huge losses too.

And what of Bitcoin today? We know that a global team of developers continues to work on improving Bitcoin. As we’ve mentioned above, it’s by far and away the most popular cryptocurrency and it’s massively traded on a daily basis.
